    The Transformers: The Movie 40th Anniversary | In Theaters September 17

    I'm highly tempted to catch this just to sing along with "Dare to Be Stupid" since of all things from 40 years ago, those lyrics are still seemingly indelibly etched into in my head.

    AI: The Rise of the Machines... Or Just a Lot of Overhyped Chatbots?

    In my case I figured the MCP structure should have been easier. One core MCP, and subordinates running off it from the various things which will eventually be on that machine. (OS right now, NAS next on it, then it will become the new home automation server) But you're right, in this case I...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    The biggest CVS rustle is the repeated times they have told me they could work my refill dates to slowly align all the medications my wife and I get to land on the same day each month. And it has never worked... not once.... yet they keep trying to talk me into trying it again....

    Weight Loss Thread

    Yeah, it's just that I eat too much of them. For instance. I just walked from my office, back to my workshop to check on a 3d print, walking back through the kitchen... Grabbed 4 big ass strawberries out of the fridge. Odd that shifting our fruit/vegetable purchasing to the newly opened HEB...

    Weight Loss Thread

    There you go with your fancy schmancy attitude and tricked up systems... sheesh.... ;) If I had that kind of willpower do you think I'd be posting daily on an elf pixel boob simulator message board? And to be honest though, a lot of the snacks I eat aren't "crappy", a lot of fruit in the mix...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Weight Loss Thread

    I've done calorie counting before. It worked, but you have to lock in and be serious about it. 500 calorie deficit per day off below your burn rate and you'll drop almost exactly a pound a week. At least that is how it was for me. I used my watch at the time to get an idea of my daily burn...

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Same sir.... For me it was the Putt Putt Golf'n'Games in Mesquite. I could ride my bike there from my house. And all I have to show for it to this day are the memories of knowing nobody dared face me in Track and Field, and two trophies from Putt-Putt tournaments.
